    Epic - cracking site by the looks and some great bits of scenery ….loving the outtakes …dropping the beer 🍻 I was laughing out loud! Thank you, another cracking vid

    Fun video - looked a good site and walk. The key to cooking on a wood fire is to cook over glowing embers, not flames.. Thats where the heat is!

    Welcome back Colin! We love your adventures. Interesting you said how busy it was, we've just come back from a weekend in our T6 in Somerset and the site was busy and that was our B choice because the A choice was fully booked in Feb #nothalfterm! I guess the world has discovered the joys of the outdoors. Thanks for the inspiration, even our 7yr old does 'see ya bye' and 'nice and snazzy' you're a Campervan Legend! Cheers

    Love your videos and enjoy your walks it’s good as we don’t get wet. Like your campsite tours may I make a suggestion that you show on the map where the campsite is. I think it is good that you show the facility’s to help us make decisions about sites to visit 👋👋👋

    Ohhh you looked cold on that walk Colin. But lovely site and an amazing area. Fires do their own things sometimes they work sometimes they don’t … but it looked to have taken off when your family rang.

    We stayed on that exact same pitch a few years ago. We were disappointed with the size of the pitch for the money as we had given them our full dimensions including air awning. Other than that it’s a lovely site in a great location. Loving your Vlogs by the way 👍

    Great vlog, Colin. I tried cooking jackets in my woodburner. They came out like charcoal but I only single wrapped them. Will double wrap next time. Hope the quiff recovered!

    Great video Colin, can't wait for next week's video. Honister pass is that the really steep single-track road? quite a scary drive if its that one. Try chili dogs next time, hot dogs warmed in the tin on the fire, pan of chili, hot dog rolls sprinkled on top with grated cheese........ belting.

    • @Yorkshirepoptopadventures
      @Yorkshirepoptopadventures  Před rokem +1

      Thank you... It's actually not that bad, no where near as bad as Hard Knot pass, that's a brute! Honister is tricky but totally doable in the right weather conditions. Drive safe and don't forget to stop to take in the scenery

    • @itsthenortherners
      @itsthenortherners Před rokem

      @Yorkshire Pop Top Adventures Thats the one, Hard Knot..... i took that route once as it was a more scenic one but my god there where parts where i wished i had just stuck to the motorway 😄. Thanks for the info and ill be watching for next weeks video.

    Been to Thor’s Cave a fair few times but have never camped as quite local to where I live but that campsite looks good for a stop over if I ever fancy it! :) Also, you were lucky to get to the cave from the side you did as that climb can be a killer 😅! As always, great vid! 😊

    Our first trip is not until April in our VDub Poppy perhaps I should do a solo camp sooner.

    • @Yorkshirepoptopadventures
      @Yorkshirepoptopadventures  Před rokem +1

      Go for it, get out and enjoy your van bud, it's pretty quiet out there at the moment (albeit this campsite was pretty full 🤣) get off the beaten track and live life to the fullest

    This is why we live in this area - such wonderful scenery even when the weather is bad, and endless lovely walks. Thanks for the endurance! Where are the girls and Branston when you do all these trips? 💕🐾

    • @Yorkshirepoptopadventures
      @Yorkshirepoptopadventures  Před rokem

      You're so lucky to live there, it's super beautiful. The girls were spending some quality time together while I was away. Sadly Branston can't do the stiles around Buxton (too narrow for him) so I couldn't bring him either :(
